What astronauts step on could end up in their oxygen tanks, and NASA’s new experiment with concentrated sunlight makes the idea of living on the Moon for months without relying so heavily on Earth seem much more plausible
The pedestrian and bicycle tunnel under the Panama Canal, which was on the verge of being approved in March 2026, is still on the table and promises something that once seemed almost impossible: crossing one of the main barriers to global trade on foot, without cars, without traffic jams, and without relying on bridges

A group of amateur astronomers has just “heard” a signal from 25 billion kilometers away, confirming that Voyager 1 is still transmitting from the outer reaches of the Solar System
China has set itself the goal of “dominating” the Solar System by the year 2100, and what is most surprising is that it will begin as early as 2026-2030 with mining operations near Earth
